The Site aims to facilitate the sale of CD keys in connections to games, online downloadable from the Site in the form of scanned card, or as a code displayed in text format. Codes are official keys allowing to unlock the entirety of a game downloaded as digital from downloading platforms which have been given by developers of the game. Availability of cards is based on the stocks. A product which is not in stock can’t be bought, as Press-Start.com disables the sale if the code or card is not available at such time. For the avoidance of any doubt, Users and Purchasing Users are not being charged by Press-Start.com as the access, use and placement of Orders through the Site is gratuitous.

Article 3 – Acceptance of Terms

3.1 Subject to any variation under Condition 3.5 below, these Terms of Sale are the only terms upon which the Press-Start.com is prepared to deal with the Purchasing User and they shall govern the Order to the entire exclusion of all other terms or conditions of the User, its agents or employees (including any terms or conditions which the User purports to apply under any acknowledgement or confirmation of Order or other document).

3.2 All descriptions of the products and services contained on the Site or otherwise communicated to any Purchasing User of such products are approximate only and shall not form any part of the contract between Press-Start.com and the Purchasing User. Press-Start.com shall not be liable to the User for any errors or omissions on the Site or other advertisement of either digital goods or other products marketed via the Site.

3.3 Each Order placed by the User through the website shall be deemed to be an offer by the User to buy goods subject to these conditions. Press-Start.com has the right to verify the User’s method of payment, billing and shipping addresses before accepting the User’s Order. Press-Start.com shall either expressly accept by giving notice of acceptance, or impliedly by fulfilling the Order, in whole or in part. Any form of acceptance by Press-Start.com would result to a contract between Press-Start.com and the User, governed by these Terms of Sale.

3.4 The User can purchase codes to activate games through the game's platform. No Order shall be considered to be accepted by Press-Start.com until the ordered digital goods have been made available and the User receives the relevant confirmation email. Press-Start.com shall attempt to notify the User in case Press-Start.com declines to accept an Order using the email address or other contact information the User has provided with the Order. Once the code has been validated, it will be considered as “used” once it has been accepted by the platform.

3.5 No terms, conditions or specifications – or any similar wording or document - endorsed upon, delivered with or contained in the User’s Order, shall form part of the contract entered into upon Order confirmation simply as a result of such document being referred to in the contract and the User waives any right which it otherwise might have to rely on such terms and conditions.

3.6 Press-Start.com reserves the right to limit or cancel any available quantity of goods for purchase on any Order on any basis, and to alter the availability or duration of any special offers at any time. Press-Start.com shall execute Orders to the User's requirements, but may – at its sole discretion - provide substitute products where requested by the User, or where the product has been superseded by the latest version. For the avoidance of any doubt, any past accommodations of such User requests shall not be construed as past contractual performance upon which a User may require Press-Start.com to continue accommodating such requests in the future. To the extent that Orders cannot be fulfilled completely from stock, the unfulfilled balance will (at the User's option) either be put on back Order to be fulfilled when Press-Start.com next has available stock or be cancelled and refunded to the User. Press-Start.com may reject any Order, or any part of an Order.

3.7 Both Press-Start.com and the User acknowledge that they have not relied on any statement, promise or representation made or given by or on behalf of the other which is not set out in the contract entered into upon Order confirmation or in any confirmation email; without however such confirmation email constituting an amendment of the Terms of Sale governing such contract. Nothing in these Terms of Sale shall exclude or limit either party’s liability for fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation.

3.8 Users should pay particular attention to Articles 6 and 7 below.
